RAX48 - How to get USB drive to show up in Windows 10?
I had an old Linksys router that had a USB drive connected to it. No problems other than the drive acting slow sometimes. I needed a faster router with better range. I found a good deal on an RAX48. ...
Wanted to further clarify the VPN app aspect of things. If a VPN application is set to allow local traffic, it will often still cause mapping issues, but after a drive is mapped, it will continue to work fine when the VPN software is subsequently launch.
It is a common bug, as the companies making these applications don't seem to test for such a use case, and they offer no good way to report the issues either.
No VPN. I tried your instructions and they work on desktop (wired). I can't get it to work on laptop (wireless).
